Chantel Hietler, PT and Director of Occupational and Physical Therapy Services with Independent Living Inc., takes part in the Head Shape Clinic twice a month.

The Head Shape Clinic

Led by cranifacial surgeon Dr. Pat Ricalde.

The multidisciplinary team evalutates, diagnoses, and treats infants with positional plagiocephaly. This condition is commonly caused by preferred sleeping positions; however, it may also be due to a malformed skull, congenital muscular torticollis, or other pathologies.

The Head Shape Clinic addresses the questions and concerns that parents have when a skull or facial problem is recognized in their child.
